He directed Men in Black - then Will Smith said anyone could do his job

Barry Sonnenfeld built a Hollywood career directing major films, including the first three Men in Black movies, but his advice is anything but polished.

The result is a strange, funny, brutally honest survival guide for making it in Hollywood without pretending you know exactly what you’re doing.
